It is a well kept historical property. The hotel is about 130 yrs old, but it is cozy, well kept, clean and the staff is super friendly and helpful. It has basic amenities such as wfi and breakfast. That being said, during weekend nights, street noises filter through the windows and it becomes almost impossible to fall asleep in the early morning hrs (12 am -2:00 am). Noise is not a problem M-R nights.

I lovely stay in a beautifully maintained 130 year old building! Not iron and solid wood, i door courtyard and amazing breakfasts every day. The staff treated us like family. When my husband suffered from altitude sickness they asked after him and offered a number of local remedies (they worked, too!) We are taking their contact information so next time they come we can skip Expedia and book directly. They were great! Only advice would be this: spring for a room with two beds. Unless you are traveling solo... the single room was very small, and we ended up upgrading. Well worth it!
